What happens on the day

Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Before any visit in Tyburn, we agree where the van can stop and how equipment reaches the system.

  1. We start by checking the canopy and what’s behind its filters.
  2. We protect everything below once it has cooled.
  3. Heavy deposits come off by hand, then the surfaces are degreased.
  4. We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
  5. The canopy is signed off with before and after photos and a next clean date.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Tyburn

We clean canopies in Tyburn when the kitchen isn’t cooking: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Cooking equipment is turned off and cooled, then covered, and the kitchen is left ready for the next service. The work covers baffle filters, grease gutters and plenum chambers, and common reasons people get in touch are a filter housing caked in grease and canopy gutters full of old fat.

Kitchens in Tyburn, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.

Fixed quotes for canopy cleaning in Tyburn

You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:

  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • The condition of the system
  • The scale of the work

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Tyburn questions

Which environmental health team covers Tyburn?

Kitchens in Tyburn are inspected by Westminster council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Can you work in Tyburn outside opening hours?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Tyburn does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.

How much does canopy cleaning cost?

Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote and we will normally reply within one working day.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.

Which accreditations do you hold?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.

What about areas you cannot get to?

We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:

  • Filters that no longer seal in the housing
  • A light fitting that doesn’t work
  • Poor airflow from a fan that needs repair

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Grease, kitchens and Tyburn

Look up Tyburn on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 3,027 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 262 takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Tyburn. Wherever there’s a canopy over the cooking, its hood and plenum collect grease with every service. London jobs normally start after the last service, with loading and roof access agreed with the building first. Tyburn is covered by London Fire Brigade. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

Where a hall near Church of the Annunciation, or anywhere in Tyburn, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. A hospital like Fortius Clinic, about 0.5 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Tyburn is about 1 mile west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. We carry out canopy cleaning for commercial premises of every kind in Tyburn and the rest of Greater London. Tyburn is one of 764 towns, villages and districts in Greater London where we work for commercial clients.

We cover every part of W1H, W1U and W1K for canopy cleaning and the streets around it. Canopy cleaning is available to premises on Sussex Square, Oxford Square and Bayswater Road and the roads around them. Tyburn sits on or near the A4209, which makes travel easy for evening and night visits. We also cover the places around Tyburn: Connaught Village (1 mile north-west), Hyde Park Estate (1 mile north-west), Paddington (1 mile north-west), City of Westminster (1 mile east) and Paddington Green (1 mile north-west).

Aftercare tips

Once we have finished, these simple steps help:

  • Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
  • Give the canopy a wipe after service
  • Check and empty canopy gutters regularly
  • Leave the extract running until cooking stops

Where the canopy is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Where only the canopy is done, the report says so clearly.

Empty the grease troughs and cups before they fill. Most canopy drips start with a full trough, so make emptying them part of the closing routine.

When to call us in Tyburn

Moisture in the air mixes with the grease on the canopy. As the canopy cools, condensation forms and runs with the grease. The result is sticky streaks and drips onto the range.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Poor capture at the hood
  • Heavy deposits behind the grease filters
  • A sticky, discoloured canopy
  • A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection

If you cook for passing trade around London Paddington station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Different parts, different methods

Grease troughs and gutters

A blocked or full trough is the usual cause of grease dripping from the canopy. Cleaning it clears the drip.

Wall canopies

At the back of the canopy, behind the filters, grease builds up unseen. With the filters out we can get to it and scrape it clean.
